While some groups facilitate survival and others want to rebuild the world, the Lorekeeper Collective seeks to preserve. This group of scribes, artists, archivists, and knowledge brokers strive to gather history and culture from the past to not only learn from past mistakes, but to also foster a spark of creativity and truth-seeking in people, which they believe was lost after the catastrophe. The network of the Collective spans all the way from the former campus of the Madison college to the tall tower called Curtin in Milwaukee, as well as having wandering bards and informants in Green Bay and the Fox River Valley. Although they aim to remain cordial with other factions, they have been called needlessly sentimental and unnecessary by more spartan or "practical" groups. Should one encounter a member of the Collective, things like paper and old relics and baubles deemed otherwise useless will be of great use to them, so expect to be rewarded at least twofold for your contribution, even a hastily written poem or song will yield some sort of token of appreciation. Rumor has it that they have an incredible wifi network still operational, but oftentimes lack any means to power it. In exchange for technical assistance, the Lorekeepers are protected by the soldiers of the Sandburg Castle and their fearsome leader, Janice.
The Lorekeepers also create steam weaponry, specifically those in Sandburg Castle.
